Anxiety and bladder issues?

Hi, i would be really grateful if someone could tell me if they've ever experienced or heard of bladder problems because of anxiety?

I always feel this urge to go to the toilet, like it's always there? I don't have urgency or ever lose control of my bladder.

yes I am constantly running to the loo,feeling a full bladder,and just passing a little bit,my doctor told me to hold it as long as I can,this will be uncomfortable for a while,but it will train my bladder not to be overactive.I am going to try this..it is related to anxiety though..xx

Hi All I sometimes feel that I have a bearing down like cystitisus and when I went to see my GP I had tests and they could not find anything wrong, I did feel that I was going mad but you have helped me stating that Anxiey can give you an overactive bladder as I think this is what is was as I only had it when I felt low, so thanks for this I feel a lot better.
